  • Daily Spark: Done and Undone

    Do you ever have a day where things just didn’t go the way you wanted them to? Doreen Virtue said, “Forgive yourself for what you think you’ve done or not done. At every moment, you had your reasons for all of your actions and decisions. You’ve always done the best that you could do. Forgive yourself.”

  • Daily Spark: A Part of Everything

    When I really feel that connectedness to all that is, that connection, when I feel a song swell up in my heart, I can feel myself shine, as bright as a beacon!

  • Daily Spark: Laugh More

     Sarah Millican (comedian) said, . . . “our life doesn’t need to be perfect; you don’t need to look a certain way to be happy.  You don’t need to be amazing at everything all of the time.” As a recovering perfectionist, I love the attitude, and the humor that allows me to laugh more!

  • Daily Spark: Compacted Feelings

    I have spent a LOT of my life burying uncomfortable feelings, smashing them down, compacting them as efficiently as a trash compactor.  I have even sprayed a bit of Febreze on top of the trash, but the smell rises through that temporary camouflage.

  • Daily Spark: Success in Life

    There have been times in my life where my responsibilities seemed overwhelming, and I didn’t feel that I had much of an opportunity to “become what I wanted to be”, to be my truly authentic self.  But of course the opportunity is always there!

  • Daily Spark: In Me

    I believe that when we can mindfully see the amazing gifts we have to offer the world, and use those gifts for good, we truly do shine.

  • Daily Spark: Growth Mindset

    Our mindset can influence how we all approach challenges, setbacks, and opportunities for growth. Do you have a fixed or a growth mindset?

  • Daily Spark: A Quiet Mind

    Today I came across a quote from the Power of Positivity that stated  “a quiet mind is able to hear intuition over fear”.  Now that I realize I have more fear than I would like, this tells me that if I can quiet my mind, I can hear intuition over fear.

  • Daily Spark: Look for Glimmers

    I saw a post online today about the concept of a “glimmer”, that is, moments in your day that make you feel joy, happiness, peace, or gratitude. The thought in the post was that the more we look for such moments, and train our brain to see them, the more these tiny moments will appear!

  • Daily Spark: What Makes You, You?

    What makes you, you? How can you bring more of that joy, that passion into your life today?  Because when I do those things that light me up, I shine!
